Services provided by RMD Australia

Extensions to Victoria Point Shopping Centre amounted to approximately 10,000m² of extra shops and car parking, which required approximately 4,000m² of undercroft area for floodwater, approximately 10,000m² of roof area at a height of 6.5m and approximately 2,500m² of mezzanine area.

The Rapidshor shoring system was used with Albeam as primary beams, with a leg grid of 1.8m x 2.4m. Rapidshor supporting Airodek 3m beams were used under the deck area, with a 3m x 1.8m leg grid. Swiftform supplied Hyplank as a working deck on the Rapidshor, which is easily moved during erection and stripping.

Using RMD Australia equipment allowed Swiftform to erect the false work extremely quickly. Also, the supply of Airodek 3m Beams and Albeam as Primary Bearers negated the need for the client to supply 150 x 77 LVL.

The client also enjoyed excellent turn around, saving time and labour in the stripping process because Rapidshor disassembles very quickly.
